| From: Stewart C. Russell via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | I'd be happy to lend you my ColorHug. Takes about 15 minutes. You will | be amazed at how less blue everything looks, because vendors always set | monitors for maximum brightness and coolness to wow people on the shop | floor. That's a very kind offer. I may take you up on it once the plague is under better control. I'm suffering whiplash from the transition from yellow overload of the bad profile to the blue-forward of the Dell profiles. I don't really like to black-box nature of the profile presentation through the Gnome GUI. There should be some tool to examine and nudge a profile in useful ways. I'm tired of spelunking to find the right software tools for all these miscellaneous tasks. I wonder if Windows has a colour profile for this monitor. If so, can I turn it into something that Linux can use? Perhaps a .icc file is exactly that. I was OK with the previous state where there was no colour profile. Maybe I can go back to that somehow. I'm too lazy/backlogged/content to figure that out. I have a tremendous backlog of "should be easy but I don't yet know/remember how" tasks. One never knows how long they take until one has accomplished them. I lived with those horrible colours for over a month. My "war story" series is meant to document some of the victories. Perhaps I'm too prideful to post them earlier, in the unsolved state. I try to file bug reports when appropriate, even if I've solved the problem for me. This should be useful for all software but I consider it a duty for free software users.
